BAM!!! I value each comment, as they sometimes add significant value to the content of the post. I was lost – what do I do?
First thought was to check my backup – I maintain a backup of my blog, however in this case the backup was more than 6 months old while these comments were less than a month old.
Not losing heart, I realised my hosting provider might have a backup. However, the provider is based out of US and had not opened yet. I left them a message. Reading the FAQ I thought I might have a chance if I can get in touch with them quickly. They only maintained a copy of the most current data, hence contacting them sooner might save the day. That was not to be: they started work two hours later and then got back to me saying that the backup was about 30 minutes old – which is after the comments were deleted. Not good. I was in despair now.
It was time to go to sleep now, and there was barely anything more that I could have done. Next morning I woke up still with a feeling of sadness, and then I had a brainwave. I get an email whenever someone posts a message to my blog. This email contains the message posted. I could check my email box, search for these messages and repost them myself!!!
A quick search on my Nokia N97 revealed I still had those emails. Paradise regained!!!
The word is “losing”, NOT “loosing”. (In your title AND 4th paragraph).
If you’re gonna be a writer, please check a dictionary when you don’t know the differences between simple words.
It reflects badly on your comprehension of English, and disinclines those who might read your article from checking it out… they wonder that if you can’t get the simplest spelling, how accurate will the rest of your article be?
“Lose” (rhymes with “ruse”) is what you did with your comments.
“Loose” (rhymes with “juice”) means not-tight, sloppy, unfastened.
Thanks for suggesting correction. While we are normally careful about spelling and grammar, occasional mistakes cannot be avoided – no blog or writer can boast of error free writing. Alert readers like yourself help us correct those.
One mistake in the entire blog speaks for our quality.
